Magnetic resonance imaging of the gastrointestinal tract shows reduced small bowel motility and altered chyme in cystic fibrosis compared to controls

2021-02-19

Abstract excerpt

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disease affecting mucosal secretions. Most patients experience digestive symptoms, but the mechanisms are incompletely understood. Here we explore causes and consequences of slower gastrointestinal transit using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Twelve people with CF and 12 healthy controls, matched for age and gender, underwent MRI scans both fasted and after standardised meals o...
